This restaurant exceeded my expectations! Every menu option was delectable and satisfying. The lobster was incredible, as were the risotto fritters . They put us in a lovely private room.

2014 Restaurant Week here was amazing!!! From the hostess to our bartender and server, the service was outstanding.

Great Happy Hour ! Eclectic wine collection and fresh, local ingredients . Bar service is amazing, so if you can, grab a seat! Ben is an awesome bartender :)

You have to try the following: duck fat fries , pork belly blt , oyster pan roast , and the white corn crab soup . I recommend a couple visits to accomplish this. Its well worth it!

Nice house infused booze (like grapefruit vodka ). Happy Hour boasts select half priced drinks, beer , and wine , and 3 for $15 appetizers .

Dinner entrees start around $27 but it's worth it for a treat! Get the waiter to recommend the best dish. We loved the wild Texas boar .
